Just wondering if there was anyone on the board who has had one of these kits and had any thoughts on it's performance. If you do have this kit please post complete side views of your Z. Thanks!

Didn't Road & Track Speed test the Greddy 350Z with the Grex brakes and the stock Z had better braking distances?

Here's a side picture. They're excellent brakes; D1X is the new owner. Rotora is my new sponsor so I switched them out. No complaints.

Greddy BBK costs as much as Brembo BBK. Mind as well get Brembo. Better quality.

^^ I'd like to see where you can get a 6 piston 355 front and 4 piston 330 rear from Brembo for the same price as the GREX? Just curious.

BBK for the rear is a waste of money, mostly for look.
Front brake does 80% braking. Stock rear brake should be good enough.

Still didn't answer my question about pricing on the Brembo. I'd love to get a set a Brembos for my other car at those prices.

mine mentality for buying brakes is the same as ron's, 60% for looks and 40 % for eprformance. Its a daily driver and I don't track it that often and even if I do its drag anyways
